I got a chest ache just looking at that recipe ![]()
Here’s a pink cotton candy flavor that I created and it’s a very realistic tasting pink cotton candy. Maybe you could get some ideas from this.
I think Toasted Marshmallow (FW) is the perfect addition for that hot spun sugar flavor.
I used Strawberry (TPA) and Bubblegum (Pink) (TPA) for that “pink” flavor.
IYKYK. Same here. I only own 1 V2/DX flavor out of ~400.
I’ve found that most bubblegum flavorings have an off-putting, “chiclets-style” profile that I really dislike—I grew up on the original Bubblicious, which is what I define as a true “pink” flavor. Does Bubblegum (Pink) (TPA) have that funky chiclets taste, or is it closer to the real thing?
Personally, I associate that “pink” flavor more with a smooth, milky strawberry background, similar to the Wyler’s cotton candy drink mixes.
I might go hit the shooting range now, all this talk about “pink” has me feeling a litlle… ![]()
Good choices for a pink flavor would be something like SSA milky strawberry, FW strawberry milkshake, any strawberry milk flavors. Also those milky strawberry flavors would pair well with the cotton candy flavors without producing an overwhelming strawberry note.
While I can’t speak for every offering from every company there are many different components to create a strawberry flavoring. Im what you may call a vape nerd. I like to research everything about flavors, what they are made of, how they are made. Here’s some of what I’ve found that makes up a strawberry flavoring.
While a real strawberry derives its complex taste from a combination of over 350 volatile compounds, artificial flavorings rely on a much smaller, carefully engineered blend of lab-made chemicals. Here is how most flavorings achieve that signature strawberry taste.
Ethyl Methylphenylglycidate:** Provides the deep, sweet, and distinctly “candied” strawberry aroma and is the primary base for most artificial formulations.
Furanone (Furaneol):** While found in real fruit, synthesized furanones are added to flavorings to provide jammy, caramel, and sweet cooked-sugar taste.
Aliphatic Esters:** Compounds like ethyl butyrate (which mimics a pineapple or banana note), ethyl acetate, and amyl acetate are blended in to give the flavor an airy “top-note” and bright, fruity punch
Thanks, I was really eying Strawberry milkshake, but I was almost thinking in my head was it more milky? Either way do these taste similar? I might just get both…
You sound like me. I went down the flavor rabbit hole a few days ago because, as much as some people hate Diacetyl, I feel like it was the secret ingredient in a peanut butter flavor I loved before it was discontinued, which led me to research it years ago.
Anyfrigginwhoo Ima DM you I need your help.
No I would describe it as a pink stick bubblegum. The kind I’d get out of a pack of baseball cards. If anything it can get a “powdery” flavor common on old school bubblegum.
ok perfect, thats what Im going for, I could prob cut out my pixy stix or candy stick with this added in
Is that what it does to you? I’m sorry ![]()
Let me guess…Peanut butter DX (TPA)
Yuppers, that’s the only one.
I got bad chest aches from a creamy mango vape and a banana vape. Just black market Chinese disposables. So I have no way to know what caused it but as an asthmatic I just steer clear of the buttah to be safe. Calculated risk taking and all that.
Black market? There’s no need to go underground for a disposable. I’m not into them but I know there are decent ones.
I got a lung reaction to a bona fide natural flavor that went bad on me. I just had it too long and it was not kept in a cool enough temperature. I’m pretty sure it developed bacteria. I couldn’t get my breath.
I am the lucky recipient of a @McDuckie Vanilla Latte (One Shot). Thx, McDuckie, I’m enjoying this one. I didn’t post it because it’s marked private.
Today I’m vaping twister (as per) and also pulled out the fizzy kush v2 (then noticed something I would like to change) so below is what I’m vaping and on my recipes is a new amended version yet to make up but will over the weekend
I researched abit deeper to find the flavour profile abit better, “Sugary yummy gummy bears and fizzy cola bottles.”
